CAMERA STATE 30 in Avatar mode

[MSFS 2024] Bug Reports SimConnect

Version: 1.6.31.0

Frequency: Consistently

Severity: High

Bug description: Loading in at a parking stand (and as a result starting in Avatar mode outside of the aircraft) leads to a CAMERA STATE value of 30. While undocumented, I assume this indicates that we’re still loading. This is an issue for things like standalone WASM modules with code that run after loading in. Now we have to wait for the user to get inside the aircraft to initialize.

Repro steps:

  • Load a flight at a gate/parking to spawn as avatar.
  • Check for the CAMERA STATE value.

Hello @runshotgun

There are two issues:

In Avatar mode, the CAMERA STATE value is not updated → This is a known issue we’re tracking in our backlog.

The CAMERA STATE feature also lacks documentation → This is also being tracked but in a separate ticket in our backlog.

I’ll keep you updated as soon as I have any news to share on these topics.

Regards,
Boris

Hello @Boris,

Is it possible at the same time to create a specific CAMERA STATE value for avatar/preflight camera? It would be much appreciated to detect that this mode is active.

Thanks, kind regards,
Romain
